Exeter Alum Makes Hats
It something she never imagined doing, but Agnes Loukota is crocheting like crazy.
This 1957 graduate of Exeter High School recently celebrated
her 55th High school reunion, but don’t think this great-grandmother
is slowing down.
In 2006 she launched on a new project. She noticed
that the Exeter G.F.W.C. Woman’s Club had put an ad in the Exeter Care Center
newsletter looking for people to crochet hats for a project they were working
on. “I went online, found the pattern and started making them,” explained
Loukota.
Even after the Woman’s club completed their project Loukota
continued to crochet the hats, which the American Cancer Society calls Head
Huggers on their website where they offer the pattern.
“I always considered crocheting an old lady’s occupation, I
guess I have reached that point now,” said Loukota while laughing.
With over 500 hats crocheted Loukota isn’t slowing down at
all. In fact, she has recruited more help in Exeter to crochet the hats.
Exeter resident and Librarian Nina Bartu is also helping Loukota.
Bartu mentioned to Loukota that she loved to crochet but
didn’t have any purpose or projects in mind, “Agnes came over with an
incredible amount of yarn stuffed in a bag along with the pattern. I’ve
used all that yarn and she has delivered another bag,” said Bartu.
Loukota finds yarn anywhere she can, “About 70 percent
of the yarn is donated. I find it at auctions and sales. A lot of
times people donate the yarn that is leftover from a project they have done.
The only color I don’t use is yellow as the American Cancer Society discourages
that color because it washes out the cancer patient’s complexion.”
Currently she delivers the hats to oncology offices where
they are snatched up like hotcakes, “When I dropped the hats off I asked
the office if they still wanted them and they told me they can’t keep them
there they go that quickly.”
They go so fast because these aren’t your grandmother’s
crocheted hats. The hats are created from soft yarns and the ladies always
put some sort of decoration on the hat to give it a fashionable twist. Loukota
and Bartu have accumulated a stack of hats again and this time they will be
selling their uniquely decorated hats at the Relay for Life event in Geneva on
Saturday July 28th. “All the money from selling the hats at
the event will be going to the American Cancer Society.”
Loukota is enjoying her hobby but it’s a far cry from her
days at Exeter High. “Back in those days there wasn’t much for the girls
to participate in but glee club and pep club.”

Exeter Fun Days This Weekend
It looks like temperatures a few degrees cooler will be helping
Exeter celebrate their annual Fun Days starting Friday and Saturday.
Friday night plan to stay hot or keep cool. If you don’t mind
the heat, head on down to the ball field for the slow pitch softball tournament
that starts on Friday evening. If you are looking for a cooler location
and entertainment to boot, downtown is where it is at. Head to John E’s
in downtown Exeter for col drinks and karaoke from 9 to close.
Saturday morning starts with a Car and Bike Show in downtown
Exeter in front of John E’s from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. Show up early, get your
car registered for this free Exeter Chamber of Commerce sponsored event.
There are trophies in several different categories and winners will also
receive free entrance to the Street Dance.
Fun and games for the kids with lots of prizes start downtown
inside the street dance area from 10 – 11:30 a.m. Tickets (2 for $1.00) will be
available for the games which include plinko, bug toss, ring toss and duck pond
downtown inside the street dance area. This event is also sponsored by
the Exeter Chamber of Commerce. The Village of Exeter will be sponsoring
free swimming at the Exeter Aquatic Center all afternoon.
If you are hungry for a snack head down to the ball field where
from 9 a.m. – 1 p.m. on Saturday, Boy Scout Troop 270 will be serving
concessions during the softball tournament. The evening entertainment and
food starts at 5 p.m. at the Exeter Volunteer Fire Department BBQ and Street
Dance featuring two live acts. Local favorites Rusty Nichol will open the
evening playing live from 5 – 9 with Timmery and Joe taking over the stage at 9
and playing until 1.
